We like Washington on Monday night as they are off a big win avoiding the sweep of the Braves and they sit in the top of the wild card spot 1.5 game lead on Cubs.Stephen Strasburg is the more experienced big game pitcher with a 1-0 1.35 ERA vs the Cardinals this year and Hudson is 0-1 1.50 ERA vs the Nationals this year but the Nationals are road favorites for a reason here and like Strasburg here, Nationals are 41-14 in Strasburgs last 55 road starts and the Nationals are 4-1 in Strasburgs last 5 starts vs. Cardinals.
